Once again I will be going out of the box with this install. I will be installing a Fluidampr crank pulley with Buddy Club's P1 power steering and alternator pulley. I will not be using the Buddy Club P1 crank pulley so it will be for sale. The Buddy Club P1 kit is for the '04-'08 Acura TSX. I call this custom kit under drive, because the crank pulley is the size of a RSX crank pulley which is 5- 7/16" and the RDX crank pulley is a little bit bigger then 6- 3/16". I believe the Buddy Club P1 assy pulleys are a bit better then stock. The reason I went with the Fluidampr, because it's harmonically balanced and the Buddy Club P1 crank pulley isn't. I need to cut down on as much vibration as possible. I should have these installed tonight.

 

Nice! looks very beautifully crafted.

 

i replaced my pulleys with the ralco rz ones no issues.. i have thought about the fluidampr one as a crank though just not sure its really worth its money.. i noticed a difference in throttle response once i swapped it out

 

Yeah, only heard good things about the Fluidampr and some horror stories about lightweight crank pulleys. Where is RZ from?

not sure on there location ordered the TSX pulley set since its the closest to ours they also make a OEM size TSX pulley infact i was the one who tested it out for them have had them on my Tsx for 3 years now i think no issues.. and 1 yr on the rdx no issues

 

I actually looked on the passed forums on here when they did the UR pulley test. The RDX crank was a little bit bigger then the TSX pulley. That price is a bit scary... IMO

 

i am not sure why there prices are cheaper then UR and the others.. quality is the same..

and yes the tsx is a smidge smaller, i also believe the RDX OEM pulley is the lightest of the K series pulleys if i remember correctly

 

Not sure about that. I will be measuring the two during the install.

 

be curious on size diff i was just going on eyeballs =) i know for a fact the altenator one is a smidge smaller cause i measured it.. which is fine.. just means more juice to the battery at idle =) the power steering was spot on

 

Good to know.

 

Why waste the money on the crank pulley? 700hp+ K's still run stock pulleys. They see a lot more rpms than a rdx does.

 

Why not, if you got it swag out, or donate to starving kids in Africa...

 

What the aftermarket parts weigh.

 

Stock numbers: Looks like I'll gain 1.7lbs with the fluridampr and lose 3.65lbs with the Buddy Club P1 crank pulley.

 

that buddy club crank is looking better and better with those numbers.. what i like about it is the UR,nst, and ralkco pullies dont have that puller option like the stock one has.. (if that makes sense) its all flat on the bolt side

 

Really?!? So you can't use the crank pulley tool on those?

 

negative ghost rider.. its a bummer too cause that tool comes in real handy otherwise you are using an impact gun to remove it

 

Well that sucks, or you could just sick a 19mm socket on there and crank the motor a few times with starting full and it will break it lose. Old Honda dealer trick.
